He's not talking about the contents of the ToS. Click the back button on the page, it takes you back here. You'd expect it to take you back to the homepage of the site. If you deeplink to that page then there's no way out other than editing the URL.
- notpushkin 3y agoI'm pretty sure he does. “The terms of service prohibits deep linking” is a pretty unambiguous phrase, and it is prohibited indeed: > Additionally, you agree not to, and will not assist, encourage, or enable others to: [...] Deep-link to any portion of the Services any purpose without our express written permission The fact that the back link is broken on that very page adds yet another level of irony here though.

- hombre_fatal 3y agoNo, they're just using history.back() on that button, not making a statement. That's just being lazy on a /tos or /privacy page as most of us have done in our life.
- presson 3y agoFix is on staging. Also updated terms to remove the bullet about deep linking, which should not have been included.
